I forgot to journal a few things.
I got a mother fucking ‘promotion’ after years, and i mean, literally 3 years of working outside of my job role at work, I’ve got the job I should be being paid for. I got promoted to ‘senior sales’ it’s just basicly a third member of management, but you’re the link between the staff and management teams, so kinda relations and stuff. Three people were interviewed for the job, and they said it was no competition, they said I was the obvious choice. To be honest, and I’m not tooting my own horn, but I should fucking think so. I’ll be working at a different store, but I prefer that, if i was promoted in my own store, that might cause a few problems. But yeah, Bury, I can’t wait.
The interview itself was pretty hard, it was aimed at someone who was already senior sales and just applying the for the job. I couldn’t answer some, some things like ‘give an example of when a member of staff didn’t follow your instructions’. I’ve given daily briefs before, action planned, but I’ve never encountered an akward member of staff. I think I did really well on the other questions, just because I’ve been all over recently working in about 4 different stores, so I’ve picked up a lot of experience and got to know a few good contacts. Mainly, I talked about targets, warranties, and add on sales, pre owned sales because those are the magical words in the GS world ;)
No shit though, I think I’ll enjoy it, I mean, I enjoy it anyway, but I was getting bored. I am totally ready for this.
Pezrah and I talked about living together last night. We’re not going to right now, but in the near future maybe. It’s good because we’ve got the same concerns, pez likes his space & I don’t like being mythered (not that he does). I like being messy, drinking tea and playing on the internet, he likes his xbox. So we were just talking about that, the down sides, i mean the good sides are there & theyre obvious, but we didnt need to talk about those because we know them. My main concerns are living out of each others pockets and getting stuck in a rut. hah, first things first though, I want a pet! and he says I can have a cat. So I’ll be happy as larry. I think we’re good though for the minute, we’re happy as things are, and aren’t really feeling the need take things further. We’ll see anyways..
